Vale Healthcare is open to all patients, both with medical insurance and those who self-fund.

If you have medical insurance / health insurance then you will require a GP referral, and preauthorisation for treatment from your medical insurer.

Patients who are self-funding can self-refer for most specialities. You will however require a GP or clinician referral for some diagnostic investigations such as MRI.

Most of our consultants hold daily or weekly clinics so you will usually be able to see a consultant fairly quickly.

Sometimes your appointment wait will depend on the consultant you wish to see. Some of our more senior consultants may have a waiting time for appointments however you will always be offered an alternative appointment with an another consultant.

To make an appointment, contact our Bookings office on 029 2083 6714.

Consultation fees will vary dependent on the consultant you see, and the treatment that you receive.

Guide prices for consultation and treatment are available from Vale Healthcare's Booking office, contactable on 029 2083 6714.
